Washington DC: Janes, the defense-intelligence provider based in the UK, has partnered with T-REX, a non-profit innovation organization based in St Louis, MO, for an event titled ‘Monitoring China’s Economic Influence’.
Scheduled to be held on September 22, this Janes-sponsored event will feature a panel of experts, including Janes’ very own China expert, Claire Chu, to discuss China’s global port expansion and its impact on port cities, commercial shipping, and maritime security. Interested stakeholders from academia, government, and private industry are invited to attend and participate. Additionally, there will be an opportunity to network over drinks and light fare following the panel discussion.
